My website at http://www.oregonsae.org/2004mbw/ is a simple three column table. There is only one table, and one row. The menu on the left side is one <TD>, the content in the center is another <TD> and the menu on the right side is another <TD>. I set the width to 15%, 70% and 15% by using <TD TD width="15%" valign="top" align="left">....

Hello, Despite GoLive 6 still not wanting to acknowledge its existence, I have been using a 468x60 IFRAME for the single task of displaying advertising banners that are randomly generated by a remote cgi script. However as I am in the process of switching to doing things 'properly' (stopping abusing tables for layout etc) I believe that I...

I am fairly new to HTML. The application I inherited gets a record set, determines how many rows it can display, and starts filling the table. Some of my character data contain spaces. I want to preserve the leading and trailing whitespace in the table data entry. Is there any way to accomplish this? Thanks Paul

Hi... What's an equivalent of doing: <center>hello!</center> in 4.01 strict? I'm using stylesheets and am telling the various selectors I want to be centred to "text-align : center;" but they only align textual objects, not image objects:

Hello, I was wondering how to do percentage widths for tables. I thought simply having the width="15%" would do it. I had it so that there is only one row, and three data cells. Each cell were set to 15%, 70% and 15%, table width=100%. It works fine in opera, but not in IE. Can someone please help me? The website is...

The W3C validator objects to the first instance of the name attribute: There is no attribute "FOO" for this element (in this HTML version). The element is defined not to have this attribute.

color schemes on a site are probably the hardest thing to do right. even if you know which colors go together you still have to orgainize them correctly. is it better to have a light color surrounded by a dark color or vise versa. it is good to sometimes have contrasting colors that just don't go. when building html tables lately i've...

I figured since a lot of us around here design sites for "customers" a lot, I'd ask a general question that might help a lot of us in the future. When dealing with clients asking for _professional_ web sites, I am constantly trying to explain why less is more; that professional-grade web sites should focus on functionality, usability, and...

I have a form containing a table whose cells include prompt text strings and input areas, one of which is a textarea. These are specified using only percent values, and I use some simple javascript to expand the table to the available window width. So whether the screen is maximized or partially minimized, the table fits snugly in the...

See the bottom of http://www.prestonbridge.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/index2.htm (4th line of the club officers section). The mark-up's validated html 4 & css, but in ie5.0/Win2000 my surname disappears, leaving just "web author: chris (big space) <myemail.gif>". It's ok (afaik) in other browsers, and even other versions of ie. I tried a lot of...

I am trying to write a web page that includes a link to an ftp server like <a href="ftp://my.ftpserver.com/">File Transfer</a> but whenever I use this link, it fails in Internet Explorer when you click on it. If you then hit refresh on the 404 error page, it loads up just fine. Similarly, the same url works when you enter it manually into the...

I'm trying to find the best way to allow web visitors to download text files (.txt, .wri & .zap file extensions). I'm having some luck. I say some because the open/save box opens with IE but not Netscape. On Netscape rather than give the user the save option it simply displays the file. I also see problems on the mac platform - no save box -...

Hi all -- A client has hired me to, among other things, optimize her web site for search engine submission. So being the dutiful SEO geek that I am, I went through and optimized each and every page of the site, including a complete recoding of the homepage which she botched.
